Topo Process Program (BETA!)

[deepspace]

2 quick questions:
A: would it be possible to have a check box that allows the computer to shut down once its finished a process batch? Say as a example having converted a batch of NED files.
B: any one noticed a getting some .bat files during a convert? I ended up with 3 while converting to .img this weekend.

I was re-doing a few quads things where going as normal but all of a sudden when a quad is finished converting from mp to .img there is not .img file sitting in the folder. Th original .mp was re-named but nothing else. The first 2 in the folder went normally. I re-did and the same thing. Any body else have this happen? I did 88 with no issues at all.
Thanks

When I have this happen it means that the cgpsmapper has errored.  Normally an RGN table size error.  Solutions are hard to come by but most times I just split the map into smaller segments to avoid the error.  My Hawaii topo is a great example it has that issue all the time.

Hello,
I am getting ready to update my NE topo map. Anything new with the topo process? I just installed it on a Windows 7 machine and still get the missing Msinet.ocx?
Thanks.

still need those vb modules;  I know the zip file is linked to and if you run the .bat as an admin it will install them.  I am currently TDY to Ohio so while I'm here I'm actually working on it in Java.  Its slow going for now

What bat files are you talking about? Maybe I installed the wrong zip file?

these are the vb libraries that are required: http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/tools/vb6-support-Install.zip

They were pretty much included in xp...

Make sure you have the latest Topo Process too so that you get the most recent census data

I tried the bat file but I am still getting the same problem.  I will wait for the Java version

i'll probably come asking for your help pretty soon

Just FYI. I recently used ver 1.0.21 for the transportation files and discovered that files are now named 2009 while topo process still expects 2008. A simple work around is to download the files, and manually rename before continuing.

Also if you only have a single contour file, don't check "Combine..." as everything gets deleted except for 2 .prj files.

Quite a handy tool though.

crap, vb is only on my pc at home so i can't fix that from where I am right now
